Drew at Moon Audio in Cary could probably fix them for you for a price. He is an authorized dealer and can (I'm sure) source the replacements.

She helped me get extra pad rings through Full Compass. They work together. Even better would be to contact Full Compass first.

Good info!

Well I emailed razordog (where they were purchased and got no response) so I called them and they said you have to contact American music and sound. They do all repairs in n. America. In case anyone else ever needs repairs.

Update.. U call them and they give u a list of authorized repaire facilities. But the one I called says he has a very hard time getting replacement drivers.

Seems fostex isnt very worried about selling replacememnt drivers, took the guy 3 calls over the course of about a week to get a response and is now able to get them. This seems to be his first time dealing with Fostex (recently), so other places may have an easier time.

Is th900 the best close back or is there something out there better.

The best but best used inside.

They are closed, but they do not isolate all that well. The Ether c isolates much better. The soon to be released Aeon looks to be very good. ZMF makes some very good closed headphones, if you like a warm signature.

True many other clised headphones isolates better than the TH900 but they dont sound better.

no, it's a closed-back can but it is vented. the z1r is also vented but provides better isolation than the th900.

will you be posting your opinion on how they compare in the z1r thread?

Ofcourse. Ask me on that thread.

If you ask the TH900 thread this question the answer is yes it is the best.
 
If you asked on the Z1R thread is "Z1R best closed back", the answer is yes it is the best.
 
Depends on which thread you ask.

but but... that's what semi closed does. A bit leaking. I have both th600 and th900 (my housemate). The leaking is obvious. Unfortunately, we still dont have z1r hahhaa. But from what i read, z1r does not leak much
